Todd Douglas Collins
I'm a 34 year-old man from Ohio, USA. I live in Amish Country and have a little farm. I love country life and the outdoors. I'm a reconstructionist Pagan, following ancient religion and always honoring my ancestors.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I'm 34 years old. When I was 5 I started taking piano lessons. Then got my first drum kit around 9 or 10. Got my first guitar when I was 14. Musical talent runs in my family and I soon realized I could do some great metal vocals. I played every instrument for a band at some point in time, whether it be drums, bass, guitar, keys, or vocals. I'm mostly known for singing in Afterlight and for having a guest appearance on a Fragments of Unbecoming album. I've been on multiple releases, including a solo album, and have begun writing another solo album.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I've played a lot of live shows. My favorites were playing with Mayhem and also playing with Watain when they played some Dissection songs.
Your musical influences
Dissection, Windir, Cor Scorpii, Mithotyn, Ensiferum, Amon Amarth... a lot.
What equipment do you use?
A lot, most importantly the Behringer V-amp 2 and Jackson guitars.
Anything else?
I've had the pleasure of sharing the stage with Amon Amarth, Mayhem, Marduk, Naglfar, Dark Funeral, Naglfar, Watain, Enslaved, and many more!
